The week I have been dreading my entire Maternity Leave has arrived - I went back to work at KPAX Channel 8 this week. I am happy to say that I think the 24 hours a week that I am working will make me appreciate being a Mom so much more. Although Gracie was constantly on my mind...as I watched the clock that first day - it was great to be out doing something I enjoyed "Before Baby". It was rewarding to chase scanner traffic, shoot breaking news, and race back to the station to get it on the air before going live at 10:00. Jody brought Gracie to visit me last night. (You can tell she was in Jody's care, because there is NO bow on her head in the pictures!) I was thrilled to see them. We snapped a few pictures of Gracie's first debut behind the anchor desk. Gracie's trying to run the teleprompter in the picture above.

Good for you! I am happy things are going so well for you family. Gracie is blessed with wonderful parents.
Congratulations Brittany!! I know how BIG of a step...well- more like a MOUNTAIN that is to overcome! I'm proud of you! You've been on my mind this week. Nothing beats the smile you get from Gracie (or Jody!) when you come home. I'm glad that everything has worked out.It ALWAYS does! :)
Brittany,
Greg and I looked at your blog tonight. We even watched the Montana News. You do a great job with everything, Gracie, Jody and the News! We are so proud of you and know you can do everything you set out to do. We have been thinking about you a lot this week. Good luck with everything.
Love you, Irene and Greg
Look at how cute Gracie is! She's a natural at the news desk. Congrats on balancing it all. That is really to be commended! Cute blog by the way. We love checking in and seeing all the new pictures.
You are a lot braver then I am. I don't know that I could leave my girls. You and Jody are great parents. Good Luck at the news station.
Hey! Greg and I looked at your blog and we watched your story... I loved it.. your so good! I wish we could just watch you on the news here. I have tried looking your stories up before and have a hard time. You sould do that more when you know when your stories are on the front page like that. Maybe thay always are and Im just an idiot! Anyways you look good and your pictures are very cute!
Gracie looks great behind the desk:)! Glad to hear everything is going well.
Gracie is getting so big, and she is sooo cute! I love the pictures you post, so keep them coming. i think you guys look so cute behind the desk. I know what you mean about working part time but you have to do what you have to do. And I also like the idea of them getting "daddy-daughter" time.

Love the outfit! I'm so glad things are working out so well for you with working. It's definitely a balancing act, but you seem to be adjusting so well.
I love having a movie star as a friend. You look so great Brittany!
